The Underground Texas Grotto is a group of cavers from the Austin area that explore caves in Central Texas and beyond. We meet on Wednesday, January 19, 2011 from 7:45 P.M. - 9:00 P.M. on the University of Texas Campus in 2.48 Painter Hall
156 west 24th Street, Austin, TX 78712 http://maps.google.com/maps?q=156+West+24th+Street,+Austin,+TX+78712&hl=en Ben Tobin will be presenting: Caves and Karst of Sequoia and Kings Canyon There are over 250 known caves in Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks, yet very little is known about most of these systems. Over the last few years, Ben started documenting karst aquifers and continued finding new caves. For information on Underground Texas Grotto activities, please see www.utgrotto.org for officer contact info, trips reports, new caver training, and the event calendar. Some of us meet before the meetings at Sao Paulo www.saopaulos.net for a happy hour special. This area is the best place to park and meet folks walking over to the meeting. Then, after the official meeting, we continue with the decades long tradition to reconvene for burgers, beer, and typical cave talk at Posse East. www.posse-east.com The UT Grotto calendar is open for you to share about your adventures, scientific research, or something cool. For info, contact Gary. Come see what some Texas cavers have been doing, Gary Franklin UT Grotto Vice Chair & Program Organizer 512-585-6057 v...@utgrotto.org Ben Tobin <bt1...@txstate.edu>
